Daniel, Multi-purpose viewer

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Fantastic watching in HD.
Great design, the white grows on you.
Bad points:: Could use a sound system cause the bass can get tinny.
2D to 3D conversion ok, but best to watch actual 3D content

James, Paddington Film and documentary lover

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Nice look, on-screen display pretty crisp.
Bad points:: Takes a while getting used to a 400Hz TV as you see very detailed movement which may show up the very little shaking of the camera during filming.

MY ADVICE: try viewing it in store before purchasing, if they have one on display -- try switching the channels, or getting a movie/dvd put on.

Thomas, Kent Film and documentary lover

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Beautiful design, fantastic picture quality and much louder than expected not to mention smart hub with fullhd quality apps, 3D explore app and much more to suit most needs. Best of all freesat off existing sky cable.
Bad points:: Need special wall mounting system but easy enough to find. Freesat is a bit slim on choice but I players on smart hub and no monthly subscriptions help to compensate for reduced channels.

David, Cambridgeshire Multi-purpose viewer

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Looks awesome.
Fantastic picture.
Sound is really good (full bodied, no need for a sound system).
Great for gaming on.
Bad points:: Only bad point is that it has an auto-dimming feature (like a lot of modern TVs) which is annoying as hell - when the image goes dark the TV dims the backlight to "improve" the black levels. It's a very noticeable and disturbing effect and it cannot be turned off BUT it doesn't apply to Movie mode so I highly recommend using movie mode (and you can tweak all the settings to make Movie behave like any of the other modes).
